The ob'ect of our invention is to provide a novel an convenientholderwherein different condiments may be contained in separate compartments,from either of which the contents thereof may be, shaken while thecontents of another compartment is-securely retained therein. And afurther. object of our invention is to provide a holder wherein theopening of one compartment and the closing of another can be effected bya single movement. 26 In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a Viewin elevation, ofv a holder havingour invention connected thereto. Fig. 2is a sectional view on lines 22 of Fig. 1. Fig. 3

is a lan view without a cap. j

T e reference numerals .in the followings ecification refer to similarparts in the d i'awings, in which is'a holder 5 having a partition 6adapted to fit the inner diameter of the holder 5, its narrow sides beinformed 85 to suit the inner contour thereof to orm the com artments 7and 8. In the upper end of the older are perforations 9, 10, each ofwhich communicates with a diiierent compartment of the holder, and abovethe perfo- 40 rations is a cap 11 adapted to be slidably at tached tothe'open end 12 of the holder to close the same. .Operatively'secured tothe upper portion of the partition 6 is a small lever 13 which issuitably connected at each the other end of said links being attached tothe slidable parts '16 and 17 which are secured to the small studs 18and 19 slidably fitted in the grooves 20.
